Ballast Point Brewing And Spirits – Banned

I have recently found myself in a pickle. In a quest to stay true to the roots of this blog in which I only review American Craft Beer, I can no longer go through my April beer review of the six different Ballast Point beers that I picked up. Unfortunately, I have found that they were purchased outright by Constellation Brands in 2015. Constellation Brands owns Corona, Modelo, and Pacifico.

Although the acquisition helps the brewers over at Ballast Point market and distribute their beer across the country, they are too big for my britches. As such, I won’t taste test or advertise “Big Beer” on this blog. They have their own marketing departments and I’m sure they’ll be blasting out t-shirts through an air powered cannon at a Tuesday night baseball game sooner or later.
